• Abstract: Healthcare systems are struggling to meet the growing demand for neurological care, with challenges particularly acute in Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD). While artificial intelligence research has often focused on identifying patterns beyond human perception, implementing such predictive capabilities remains challenging as clinicians cannot readily verify insights they cannot themselves detect. We propose that large language models (LLMs) offer more immediately practical applications by enhancing clinicians' capabilities in three critical areas: comprehensive data collection, interpretation of complex clinical information, and timely application of relevant medical knowledge. These challenges stem from limited time for proper diagnosis, growing data complexity, and an overwhelming volume of medical literature that exceeds any clinician's capacity to fully master. We present a framework for responsible AI integration that leverages LLMs' ability to communicate effectively with both patients and providers while maintaining human oversight. This approach prioritizes standardized, high-quality data collection to enable a system that learns from every patient encounter while incorporating the latest clinical evidence, continuously improving care delivery. We begin to address implementation challenges and initiate important discussions around ethical considerations and governance needs. While developed for ADRD, this roadmap provides principles for responsible AI integration across neurology and other medical specialties, with potential to improve diagnostic accuracy, reduce care disparities, and advance clinical knowledge through a learning healthcare system.
